Na be your ex do this thing for you?

Go and arrest your mechanic immediately and apologize if his hands are later proven to be clean. Most car vandalism and thefts can not occur without their knowledge.

Do you sell brand new for 09 Sienna

One reason I avoid Toyota products

Can i ask @,Op where did you pack your car all night ?

fineboynl:
Look very well. They broke the last small glass at the side from there they gain access into the car. From that hole they open the back door and the rest was history.

I was surprised you didn't mention battery and radio. It looks like they didn't remove your battery and radio.

The theif is in the same street with you and probably an electrician.

Every night from 1am to 2am. They go about the street looking for car to vandalized. Especially cars that are pack in the dark.

Look like the person don't want load because he would have remove your 4 rims and battery.

One of the reasons to be in a street that has many dog owners. Late night movement is restricted in a way by those dogs.

I did normal 5k car insurance (3rd party)
Oga, pls move this thread to FP, I need more contribution.

Thanks

comprehensive insurance is like 30 to 50k for this car. Next time insure your vehicles

I think this is the new trend.a friend’s car was done the same too. His life’s work was stolen. 1 macbook and a hp in abuja

Chai. Why does this car attract thieves like this self.

Pls Dey park inside your gated compound pls

buygala:


No you can't.. Sadly


Sell that car asap and retrieve your peace of mind.. As it stands, all Corolla Drivers, especially this model, are within the gunsights of all armed robbers, petty thieves, car jackers, vandals and assassins across Nigeria..

Next time e fit be you dem go vandalize because of that silly vehicle .. Better make hay while the sun shines

Safety first.. That silly fuel economy and durability Corolla mantra can take the back seat...

Na who dey alive and safe and who dem no vandalize him moto dey enjoy fuel economy

Nigeria needs to protect you with all her forces. You are surely an asset in this country.

SORRY BRO

ALARM IS BEST FOR SUCH CARS.....

cruising my golf 2 in peace!

I park anywhere, nobody touch it!

i understand bro. You can even wind down the glass and go to bed assured.

I once had a Golf but since I switched to Toyota na fear they catch me anytime I park outside,.

That particular brand of Toyota is an endangered model. Highly in use and in high demand. The thief is not far from you. You can set a trap.

My brother, so sorry for what happened to you.

They also rob cars like this in my area, especially early hours of the morning and sometimes they go around with guns and even hold the security guards, beat them up and threaten them with their guns.

What people at my side now do is that, they fix their cars and go meet a welder who secures the brain box that's using iron re-enforcement methods so that the thieves can not do their tricks again

But with this they also go pack in a secure location.

So sorry once again.

This advice sounds Reghalicious.

GreatAdvice:
Driving a car in Nigeria is a luxury. As painful as this experience is, I will advise you to replace the parts or use public transportation for now.

Nawa ooo

Mynd44:
If that car was insured, you would not be worried right now.

But now that this has happened, find a way to move the vehicle somewhere safe until you can fix it then insure it after fixing.

Insure, like say nah pure water them take dey do insurance…abi say insurance nah just form wey u go just go fill

Kajaard:


Do you park in the street?

I have a 2018 Toyota Corolla Sport and will never park in the street in Lagos. Corolla parts are hot cake in Lagos.

No be by to park inside compound be the thing. Na grace of God.

Back in 2007, a church member parked his new Toyota Land cruiser inside his gated and fenced compound (i think they even had a maiguard then, carry remember exactly), and even covered the vehicle with car cover, as per new car na... ...Still, if you see the way they vandalised this man's vehicle eh! Both battery, brain box, wires, door controls, etc! That would be first understanding of vandalization as a young boy.

God protect us!

Should I invite the Police

Its a phenomenon. Don't waste your money, inviting the Police. Its a waste of time&money.

caketake3:


I'm really amazed that the police can do this (or that people have hope in the police to do this for "ordinary" people). The money this person will pay to the police will definitely be more than the cost of fixing the car in good shape.

I will advise this individual just do everything but contact the police. They will make him hate the day he stepped into the police station.

ok instead he should move on with life , its simpler

How much for Honda baby boy 4plug?

Is there anti theft car alarm system in Nigeria?

Check and buy one.

When they hit your car, the alarm goes off - scare them away.

Wahala dey o

If you dey use this kind car for nigeria na to hire personal vigilante to Dey guild the car alone .

Buddha3:


Some Nigerians will comment on certain issues and you'll know it's just so they can be noticed.

You're advising someone to sell a car without a brain box in Nigeria? Nothing gives up your ignorance like this sorta comment.

Make him try go sell the motor in its current state and see if he'll get more than 700K for a Corolla that is rightly supposed to fetch him 2million naira at the very least.

Baba calm down... ...he may have implied that the OP should repair it, then sell it off. Of course, no sane car owner will sell the car in this state na. It will be grossly under-valued.

gevans:
I don't know why some Nigerians are so heartless. I went to execute some Projects yesterday after first service. I got home past 10 (pm), I went to my car this morning to pick some document from the boot. When I was leaving, I pressed the lock key from the remote, it didn't lock. When I checked properly, I found out that brain box, the driver side glass button and passenger button were all stolen.

I am so pained, this is happening after spending over 500k to fix and replace the engine.


Pls what should I do now, I need to make a critical decision on this Corolla of a thing. I really needs your advice.

Thanks

Sorry about your experience, it is pathetic. I will advise you do comprehensive insurance if you still want to continue using it, insurance will bear the cost of all these.

Look for a very strong herbalist, let him identify the people and use Ogun to kill them all. I was robbed in my apartment 2 years ago, my avalon was stolen, 2021 again, i parked a corolla to take one bottle of bear, only for me to come out, i pressed remote, e no work the car battery has been removed. I am looking for a good native charm or an herbalist to kill them all, those that robbed me if they are still alive. wicked people everywhere.

Just be thanking God, you are very lucky. When they did this to me, they removed all four roller from doors, removed my battery, removed my brain box, removed my 2side mirrors, removed my back lights, stole two shoes from my booth(my car is like my house, that's where I keep my shoes and lots of other things)

I spent 210k replacing the parts stolen from the car. Them no tell me before I relocate within 2weeks out of that area

Should I invite the Police

At your peril sir. Jus ready to donate to them. That's all they care about.

You can sell and buy a Pointiac Vibes with same Corolla engine or go for Honda Accord.
